From Puyuhuapi to Chaitén, Chile

My motorcycle trip this time is from Puyuhuapi to Chaitén, Chile.

The distance is approximately 190km.

This trip is entirely paved, so my journey will be a smooth one.

I leave Puyuhuapi

The weather here is nice and pleasant.

I don’t particularly like mountain roads, but I enjoy running here.

I arrived in La Junta about 40 minutes after leaving.

Gas prices at Shell were a bit pricey: $1.322, $1.352, and $1.385 for 93, 95, and 97, respectively.

It was a sunny day, but the temperature never rose and it was cold.

I left Aysen, where I had stayed for a long time, and entered Los Lagos.

I arrived in Villa Santa Lucia about an hour and a half after setting off.

I plan to return here from Puerto Montt and then head to Argentina, so I take a quick look around my surroundings.

After that, the scenery remained unchanged.

And I arrived in Chaiten about two and a half hours after I left.

From there I arrived at Chaiten Square shortly after.

This time, the weather was sunny, a stark contrast to the previous day, so I enjoyed riding.

There were no particularly difficult sections here, and the distance was short, so I was able to ride at my own pace, which was great.

After this, I took a ferry to Chiloé Island.
